Very nice tour and lots of fun.

Thanks to the person who posted this tour.
I was wondering why he was going in circles a few times. But now I know why. There are some nice trails.

December 16, 2022,First “g'scheid" Fat Ride 😄

After 2 weeks without, finally cranked the pear free again. Perfect conditions for fatty at the moment on the Waldstein and Epprechtstein. 👍🏼 No trails have been groomed yet, so there's no stress with the cross-country skiers yet. There is always a car or tractor track for the uphill and the finest powder is on the downhills. 🤗
